Mobile Applications for Cybercrime Prevention: A Comprehensive Systematic Review

Now-a-days, cybercrime, cyberattacks, cyber security, phishing and malware are taking a more notorious role in people's daily lives, not only at the international level. The great technological leaps brought with them new modalities of cybercrime, the number of victims of cybercriminals has increased considerably. The objective of this study is to determine the state of the art about Mobile Applications and their impact on Computer Crime Prevention. Therefore, it has become necessary to know what preventive measures are being taken, such as techniques for detecting computer crimes, their modalities and their classification. To close this knowledge gap, a systematic literature review (SLR), a methodology proposed by Kitchenham & Charters, was proposed to obtain the detection techniques and classification of computer crimes based on the review of 68 papers published between the years 2017 and 2022. Likewise, different tables and graphs of the selected studies are provided, which offer additional information such as the most used keywords per paper, biometric networks, among others.
